International Perspectives on End-of-Life Law Reform by Ben P White
This interdisciplinary analysis will appeal to those in the fields of law, health and medicine, bioethics, regulation and political science, as well as those working in parliaments and government bodies with responsibility for reform, non-government organisations, advocacy groups and civil society groups engaged in reform debates.
'Overall, the book aims to support reform efforts to improve end‐of‐life law and practiceConsidering the increasing number of jurisdictions regulating end‐of‐life (especially assisted dying), this is a book on an aspect of the debate (why and how reform happens) often not given sufficient importance. While indeed 'all politics is local' (p. 266), the motivations for such legislation are shared, and experience from other jurisdictions is crucial to the creation of a good law. An important piece of work.' Nataly Papadopoulou, University of Leicester, Leicester, UK
